    Young, gorgeous, and recession proof, 38 of the world’s most eligible heirs and heiresses posed for Bruce Weber in Vanity Fair (June 2009). But they’re not resting on their family’s laurels. They’re making privilege count–many in the family business; some in areas of their own choosing. I’ve hand-picked my favorites for their cable-knit sweaters, riding boots and monogrammed ties but you can view the rest of Weber’s photos at VanityFair.com.

    @ Peter:

    Naturally, since he (well, actually his family) owns it!

    Lapo’s monogram tie has the logo of the Italian football club Juventus.

    I remember the first time I saw these shots; some of the loveliest photos and it’s great to see them again.

    Allie in G’town—Sans the cigarette for health reasons…yes. But photographing Lapo without a cigarette just wouldn’t be as sexy. Hehe!

    Sunday—I thought you’d like it. I’ll be keeping it up, just keep spreading the word.

    Alisha—I had fun developing the personal stationary concept for the comment section and it’s good to hear that the experience is as fun as it looks. 

    Allie in G’town—Lapo, doesn’t he just have impeccable taste (most of the time)?

    Still searching for the purple suede Car Shoes I saw Lapo pic’d in years ago. Must get for Babe…XXOO
